Trousseau Syndrome and gastric stump adenocarcinom
Keywords:
gastric stump carcinoma, paraneoplastic syndromesAbstract
An 82-year-old man, with a previous partial gastrectomy, presented to our hospital with thrombosis of the
right popliteal vein. Investigation revealed a gastric stump
adenocarcinoma with liver metastasis.
We discuss the higher risk of cancer after gastrectomy
for benign diseases and the possible, but unusual form of
presentation as a paraneoplastic syndrome.
